Recent Developments in Y STR and Y SNP Analysis

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
John Butler
This article reviews new genetic markers on the Y chromosome and methods for analyzing these short tandem repeat (STR) and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci. Relative chromosomal locations for over 50 Y STRs are described along with their repeat

Characterization of 26 miniSTR loci for improved analysis of degraded DNA samples

January 25, 2008
Author(s)
Carolyn R. Steffen, Margaret C. Kline, Michael Coble, John M. Butler
An additional 20 novel mini-short tandem repeat (miniSTR) loci have been developed and characterized to aid in the analysis of degraded DNA samples. These new markers produce short PCR products in the target range of 50 150 base pairs (bp) by moving the

Concordance Study Between the AmpFlSTR((R)) MiniFiler(TM) PCR Amplification Kit and Conventional STR Typing Kits

July 25, 2007
Author(s)
Carolyn R. Steffen, Margaret C. Kline, Julio J. Mulero, Robert E. Lagace, Chien-Wei Chang, Lori K. Hennessy, John M. Butler
The AmpFlSTR MiniFiler PCR Amplification kit developed by Applied Biosystems enables size reduction on eight of the larger short tandem repeat (STR) loci amplified in the Identifiler kit, which will aid recovery of information from highly degraded DNA
